An American Airlines flight landed safely in Los Angeles Wednesday night after the Boeing plane blew a tire during takeoff from Dallas, federal authorities said.
American Airlines flight 345, a Boeing 777 plane, took off from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and landed at Los Angeles International Airport without incident around 8:45 p.m. local time Wednesday, according to the Federal Aviation Administration and an American Airlines statement given to multiple news outlets.
“The aircraft taxied to the gate under its own power and customers deplaned normally,” the airline told Fox Business.
There were no immediate reports of injury to anyone on board.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating.
American Airlines did not immediately respond to USA TODAY’s request for comment.
The blown tire is the latest incident to plague the aviation industry in recent weeks.
